Really happening local food & craft beer/wine hangout. Creative furniture inside an old brick building that used to be a tobacco factory. The beer they brew is not my favourite but they offer a huge list of other quality craft beers from all over the Okanagan, Vancouver Area and the US. Food menu is unique and tasty. Try the portobello mushroom fries - so good!

Best pizza in Kelowna in my opinion and they've also been voted the best pizza in Kelowna several times. Quality ingredients, huge slices, deals, they're close and they deliver...this is my go-to place for pizza.

This place is cash only (or you can set up a tab), owned and operated by locals. Check their hours because they're only open in the morning and afternoon. This place is at or has been very close to #1 on TripAdvisor in kelowna for their service, huge portions, and quality home cooking. This place is like having lunch at your grandma's house (if your grandma, like mine, was a good cook).

Great locally owned and operated Thai restaurant. The same extended family also owns Bai Thong on Bernard, but Bai Thong is slightly more expensive. This location is recently renovated and has a great fresh and tasty menu, and you can always tell them how spicy you want the curry dishes.

Best Pho in Kelowna for sure. I get the spicy lemongrass broth with rare beef & brisket with vegetables. Family-run business and always a high standard of quality.

Drinks & Nightlife
BNA has started recently making their own beer but Tree has been around for a long time as a craft beer maker here in Kelowna. Everything in the Beer Institute is brewed on site and goes from tank to tap, meaning you're getting a unique, unfiltered brew that you can't just buy in a can or a bottle at the liquor store. They offer growlers, merch, crowlers (they'll pour you a 1L can and seal it for you). They also have snacks and a small food menu including pizza.
